"legislative information offices"

The nonpartisan Legislative Affairs Agency made a two-part proposal: the first part would close the Unalaska legislative information office; and the second part would have used the savings to keep the 22 other LIOs open on Friday afternoons when the Legislature is out of session.

Payroll for support staff that work irregularly was also cut. Combined, the changes are expected to cover a $298,000 cut in the legislature’s operating budget.
